SOUR

1 step forward, 3 steps back

Verse1
Sunlight spills across the quiet road,
and still my heart runs after you.
I whisper softly into the wind,
but every sound just fades away.

You’re standing near, yet out of reach,
your silence pulls me farther.
My eyes are searching endlessly,
but yours are wandering away.

Chorus
So won’t you see me now?
From the place where I remain—
I’m giving all my tender love,
but I’m left in the shadows.
Come closer to my fragile heart,
hold me tighter, love me more.

Verse2
Every star is burning with your name,
yet I’m the one who disappears.
Your world is bright, but I can’t find
a space for me inside of it.

Don’t speak a word—I’ll hear it still,
your touch is louder than the night.
I pour my soul into your hands,
but do you feel it slip away?

Chorus
So won’t you see me now?
From the place where I remain—
I’m giving all my tender love,
but I’m left in the shadows.
Come closer to my fragile heart,
hold me tighter, love me more.

Bridge
The higher the hope, the deeper the fall,
I’m breaking beneath the weight of it all.
One fleeting glance, one gentle touch—
to me, it means everything.

Chorus
So please, just see me now,
don’t let me fade from your sky.
If I could live inside your world,
I’d give you more than time could hold.
Come closer to my fragile heart,
hold me tighter, love me more.
